Can the herd of irrational ‘TRUMP-HATING RINOs’ be turned in time to avoid their disastrous plunge over the cliff?
More importantly: Will the RINOs ultimately succeed, with the help of our Controlled MSM, Misguided Judicial System. Dumbed-Down Population and Cowardly U.S. Congress, in fully converting the once-unique U.S.A. from a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC into a ‘CRINO COUNTRY’ (Constitutional Republic In Name Only)?
RINOs BEWARE – THE POTENTIAL PRECIPICE LIES DIRECTLY AHEAD! – (July 18-21, Cleveland)
Trump Campaign: Cruz Staged ‘Attack’ In Georgia To Steal Delegates…’Not Grassroots Activism’
Breitbart / 2016 Presidential Race

4/17/2016
Excerpt:
The Donald Trump campaign is accusing the Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) campaign of staging a coordinated “attack” in Georgia that led to pro-Trump delegate candidates being challenged and deposed in every corner of the state, which Trump had won resoundingly in the primary.
“Private backroom nominations committees producing ‘recommended’ slates, county delegations voting in blocs, floor motions made targeting our supporters,” Trump national delegate director Brian Jacks claimed, in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News. “This is the machine politics we read about in school, not the grassroots activism our campaign encourages.”
Trump supporters walked out of the district convention in Buford Saturday after a Cruz-Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) alliance bumped all of the potential Trump delegates off that district’s slate. But the chaos in Buford happened everywhere at Saturday’s district conventions, with Cruz supporters isolating and targeting pro-Trump delegate candidates in order to reverse Georgia’s votes on a potential second ballot at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland in July.
“Within an hour I knew this had happened all over the state of Georgia,” Thomas Deen, senior data analyst for the Trump campaign in Georgia, told Breitbart News. “I am aware of instances in all fourteen of our congressional districts.”
“I was speaking to someone in our third district and he said that they actually re-did the committee and replaced the committee with Cruz members and then passed motions to replace the Trump delegates with Cruz delegates,” Deen said.
“This is not an isolated incident. I spoke to Jeanie Seaver, the grassroots coordinator [on the Trump campaign]. She was kicked off being a delegate and replaced with an 18-year old kid right out of high school because he was a Cruz supporter and there was nothing she could do because the committee was just banging their gavels” shutting down dissent, Deen said.
“This was an attack. We’re not going to take it lying down.”

Go ahead, Donald, get 1,237; it won’t matter: RNC delegate
CNBC
By Lori Ann LaRocco
4/22/2016
Excerpt:
Donald Trump may be the only Republican presidential candidate who can realistically hit the magic 1,237 number for the majority of delegates, but according to a senior Republican National Committee official that does not mean he will become the GOP presidential nominee.
Curly Haugland, a longstanding RNC official and an unbound delegate from North Dakota who will be on the convention rules committee in July, told CNBC that attaining 1,237 during the primaries does not secure the nomination.
“Even if Trump reaches the magic number of 1,237 the media and RNC are touting, that does not mean Trump is automatically the nominee,” Haugland said. “The votes earned during the primary process are only estimates and are not legal convention votes. The only official votes to nominate a candidate are those that are cast from the convention floor.”
Haugland explained the primary number is really an estimate. That’s because the eligibility of some delegates in how they are voted in could be questioned and their status may not be considered valid, Haugland said.
“Remember every state has a different delegate allocation process,” he said. “Delegates are picked up in state contests that can be winner take all, open primaries, and remember there are seven states that allow the candidates to pick their own delegates. Until those delegate challenges are settled, there is no 1,237.”
Haugland said he expects the delegates won in winner-take-all states to be most likely challenged.
Hitting 1,237 in the primaries does not mean the candidate would automatically become the GOP presidential nominee.
“You become the presumptive nominee when you get 1,237 bound delegates,” RNC spokesman Lindsay Walters told CNBC. “You officially become nominee when you have 1,237 votes on the floor of the convention.”

@ Bruce:
This is nothing more than a shell game being played by the Republican Establishment.
Why even have a primary season. Just have the Establishment appoint delegates per state to decide.
If Trump finishes up the primaries with more states won, more delegates, and multi-millions more votes, then he should rightfully be the nominee.
Ben Carson: Denying Trump nomination would ‘shatter’ the GOP
RINO’S BEWARE –
Donald Trump, the ‘presumptive GOP presidential nominee’, has topped the required 1237 ‘First Ballot Pledged Delegate’ count as of 5/26/2016. He has now accumulated 1239 pledged delegates.
It will be interesting to see how the pathetic RINOs, such as radio talk show host and RedState editor, Erick Erickson, and former MA governor and 2012 GOP presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, will respond to Trump’s very impressive nationwide popularity with concerned, ordinary American citizens and his recent ‘GOP DELEGATE COUNT VICTORY’.
Hugh Hewitt: GOP Should Change Convention Rules to Dump Trump
Breitbart / 2016 Presidential Race
by Alex Swoyer
6/8/2016
Excerpt:
Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt suggests the Republican Party should change the rules ahead of the GOP National Convention so presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump can be replaced.
“It’s like ignoring stage-four cancer. You can’t do it, you gotta go attack it,” Hewitt says. “And right now the Republican Party is facing — the plane is headed towards the mountain after the last 72 hours.”
“I wanna support the nominee of the party, but I think the party ought to change the nominee. Because we’re going to get killed with this nominee,” he added.
…………………………………………
“They ought to get together and let the convention decide,” Hewitt stressed……..
